Quicken

Quicken includes online services that allow users to retrieve transactions from various providers – such as their bank or credit card company.

Quicken Home & Business encompasses management of rental properties, and is only available on the Windows platform.

Intuit hosted all of the user's data, provided patches and regularly upgraded the software automatically.

[21] In 2008 and 2009, Quicken users reported an unusually large number of software bugs for a commercial product.

[28] Intuit decided to start from scratch and Quicken Essentials for Mac (QEM) was created in 2010.
